Abstract: The instant invention is directed at an apparatus for removing VOC's from an
exhaust gas stream comprised of the following: a heatable adsorber located in the
exhaust stream capable of desorption; and, an oxidizer structure having a lightoff
temperature and located in the exhaust stream downstream from the adsorber structure.
One particular embodiment of the apparatus comprises the following two elements: (1) a
resistively heatable adsorber possessing an activated carbon phase located in the exhaust
stream and having a desorption temperature; and, (2) an electrically heatable catalyst
structure having a lightoff temperature and located in the exhaust stream downstream
from the adsorber structure. 
     The method enabled as a result of the development of the aforementioned
apparatus, i.e., a method for removing VOC's from an exhaust stream, involves two
essential steps: (1) causing exhaust gases from an exhaust gas stream to flow through an
adsorber structure and an oxidizer while adsorbing an amount of VOC's; and, (2)
heating the oxidizer to its lightoff temperature and desorbing the adsorbed VOC's and
thereafter flowing the desorbed compounds through the oxidizer whereupon they are
oxidized. One particular embodiment involves two essential steps: (1) flowing VOC-containing
exhaust gases through an adsorber structure having an activated carbon
phase and an electrically heatable catalyzed structure while adsorbing an amount of
VOC's; and, (2) heating the catalyzed structure to its lightoff temperature, desorbing the
adsorbed VOC's and thereafter flowing the desorbed compounds through the catalyzed
structure whereupon the desorbed VOC's are oxidized.

Title: Leaching process
Inventor: LANDFORS JOHAN
IPC: D21C11/00
Filed: 1996-06-14
Abstract: An increasing problem with the pulping chemical recovery system, is the presence of chloride and potassium in the recovery boiler. Chloride and potassium increase inter alia the stickiness of carryover deposits and dust particles to the recovery boiler tubes, which accelerate fouling, corrosion and plugging of the recovery boiler. As the environmental legislation becomes more stringent, the degree of system closure increases. The present invention relates to a process by which the collected precipitator dust (1) is leached (2), at a temperature exceeding 50 DEG C, for a residence time sufficient to get a chloride and potassium enriched leach solution (4) and to remove at least a part of the content of metal ions in a solid phase (3). Said leach solution is electrochemically treated (5), preferably in an electrodialysis cell, in order to remove at least a part of the chloride and potassium therein. By the present process, the problem of sticky deposits in the recovery boiler can be substantially reduced. This means an improved energy efficiency as well as a higher degree of recovery of the pulping and bleaching chemicals.

Abstract: The system is for winding up a strip of paper on a roll (9). When a roll is full, another roll spindle is spun up to speed on an arrangement (7) with a belt (7.3) stretched over two rollers (7.1,7.2). The roll core is then dropped or positively moved down onto the paper web just before it joins the nearly full roll. The paper web is then cut before it joins the full roll, but after the empty roll core. An air blast nozzle blows the paper strip towards the empty roll core, which then catches the loose end of the paper strip and proceeds to roll it up. The support for the full roll is then dropped away and the roll is then removed and the new roll then moves onto the support.

mechanism. The energy absorbing mechanism comprises an
elongate rib (34) extending along the inner side of each
upright member and cooperating cutting or deforming tools
carried by the seat back at the sides of the seat back
adjoining the upright members and which are incorporated in
guides (36) which serve to guide the seat for vertical
sliding movement. In the event of a crash in which
vertical downward movement of the aircraft is arrested
suddenly by impact with the ground, the seat and its
occupant are allowed to decelerate more gently by downward
sliding movement of the seat relative to the frame whilst
the kinetic energy of the seat and occupant is absorbed by
paring or deformation of ribs (34) by the cutting or
deforming tools.

Abstract: A vibration gyroscope (10) which is capable of accurately
detecting a rotational angular velocity regardless of
environmental changes or changes in vibrator characteristics
includes a vibrator (12) formed of a vibration element (14),
and first and second piezoelectric elements (16a, 16b) for
detection and a third piezoelectric element (16c) for
driving. Output currents of the first and second
piezoelectric elements (16a, 16b) are converted into
voltages by I-V conversion circuits (24, 26), or output
voltages of the first and second piezoelectric elements are
detected by voltage detection circuits, and then the
voltages are added together by an adder circuit (28). An
output signal of the adder circuit (28) is monitored by a
monitor circuit (40). On the basis of this result, the
voltage or the phase of a drive signal fed from an
oscillation circuit (34) to the third piezoelectric element
(16) is controlled. The output signals of the I-V conversion
circuits (22, 24) or the output signals of the voltage
detection circuits are formed into a DC signal corresponding
to a rotational angular velocity via a differential
amplifier circuit (48), a synchronization detection circuit
(50), a smoothing circuit (52), and an amplifier circuit
(54).

Abstract: A client enabled to load and run Java applets in a distributed object computing system
retrieves needed Java classes in a location-independent manner from various class servers
in the system. Initially, the client queries a naming service of the distributed object
computing system to determine the class server that contains the base class needed. A
connection through an object request broker is made from the client to the class server. The
client then requests the code for the base class from the class server by using the object
request broker. The class server retrieves the code by either reading a file from its own
local file set, or if the code is not local, queries the naming service for another class server
that has access to the code for the base class. This process of finding a class server and
determining if the code is local may be recursive as classes may be moved or renamed. The
class server then returns this code to the client by way of the object request broker. The
client determines whether the returned code contains any unresolved classes, i.e., classes
that are used but not yet defined or loaded. The client requests code for any unresolved
class in a manner as above for the base class. The client incorporates Java software to run
the applets and ORB binding software to enable the software to make calls to the object
request broker. A network class loader enables the client to load and resolve classes over a
distributed object system.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for spacing characters
rendered from a digital font at an output pointsize. The font
has first spacing metrics for a small pointsize and for a
different large pointsize. The method includes calculating a
separation by interpolating the small pointsize metrics and
the large pointsize metrics and spacing the pair as a function
of the calculated separation. Embodiments may include the
following features. The font has spacing metrics for at least
three different pointsizes. The spacing metrics include left
sidebearings, right sidebearings, or kerning values. A
kerning value for a character pair is generated by
interpolating a first kerning value at a small pointsize and a
second kerning value at a large pointsize to the output
pointsize. The invention also features a computer program on
a computer-readable medium having instructions for rendering
characters and two sets of spacing metrics at two different
pointsizes. The invention also features a computer program
having instructions for rendering a set of characters and a
set of kerning values for all pairs consisting of one
character from the set of characters and the space character.
A method of the invention for justifying a line of text
includes the steps of obtaining a kerning value for the pair
(space, left-most text character) and a kerning value for the
pair (right-most text character, space), positioning the text
characters at the margins according to the kerning values. A
method of the invention includes the steps of reading kerning
information into a random access memory, adding the kerning
information to a matrix addressable by character pairs, using
a pair of characters to address the matrix, using the matrix
value to calculate a separation, and spacing the pair as a
function of the calculated separation.

Abstract: A capacitive structure on an integrated circuit and a
method of making the same are disclosed, which is particularly
useful in random-access memory devices. Generally, the method of
the present invention comprises the steps of forming a
substantially vertical temporary support 54 (preferably by
forming a cylindrical aperture in an insulating layer) on a
semiconductor substrate 10 and forming a substantially vertical
dielectric film 32 (preferably a high dielectric constant
perovskite-phase dielectric film, and more preferably barium
strontium titanate) on a temporary support 54. The method
further comprises depositing a first conductive (e.g. platinum)
electrode 60 on substantially vertical dielectric film 32, and
subsequently replacing temporary support 54 with a second
conductive (e.g.platinum) electrode 64, such that a thin film
capacitor 44 which is substantially vertical with respect to
substrate 10 is formed. The entire capacitor is essentially
self-aligned, such that some embodiments require only one
lithography step to complete the capacitor. Also, an advantage
of this method is that a high temperature, high oxygen activity
dielectric deposition may be completed prior to formation of
either electrode, thus greatly simplifying both electrode
structure and processing.
